Clock is ticking away. This is time in Larnaka

In the Middle East when someone says 'boukrah' [literally 'tomorrow'] they don't mean it. They mean 'soon'. When someone asks me when I will be home I usually say 'I won't be long…' meaning… well those who know me know the answer is rather too Middle Eastern for their liking!

Sorting :-(

Although all the stuff we want to take to Cyprus is out of our house, it wasn't yet packed in a way suitable to ship. We have just spent the first two days of this week, re-packing and sorting [and throwing away more] everything so that [hopefully] it will all arrive safely in Cyprus.Some things we have re-utilized: For instance, there is a very nice bookcase we inherrited from Sue's grandparents which we have used to contain bubble wrapped paintings inherrited from both of our grandparents.

I think it's about 45 boxes we have now packed. It was very tiring work and other than packing solid pine wood sides for both Sue's and mine and Daniel's beds, it's all finished. They collect on Friday.
